JBL Flip 4 is rated 4.5 out of 5 by 1889.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Impressive quality. I just bought this a week ago and havent looked back. Blue. I toss it in the washing (not running) machine to give the bass a bit more badump. For the price you cant go wrong. It sounds much better than the last speaker i had, cost more than the Flip 4. The battery lasts all day, depending on your volume settings. In this one week i have dropped it twice, off an pallet jack and another time jumping off the mast off a forklift. Id say 5ft. Still works like a charm. Not a scratch. The sound is impressive. I listen to almost everything. Everything sounds good. Ill be ordering the camo flip 4 and a charge to have a nice system when i ride my bicycle.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent so far, haven't thoroughly tested First of all, you have to be mindful of the sound settings on your device in order to prevent things such as text messages and other sounds from occurring while you are playing music. As always, don't blame the device for user error. Anyways, the Flip 4 sounds great and has really good bass. It has really good range, especially outside; I think I went way past the listed range and did not lose connection. I haven't tried to test the battery in one sitting, nor have I run water over it, nor have I set it out in the sun for long periods of time. I will when I go to the beach this summer. Build quality feels solid. If you lose the lanyard, you can easily replace it with a shoe string.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Needs longer battery life I bought one of these a couple of months ago for a river trip and the speaker was great! It was easy to use and had good sound quality however the battery life was very disappointing. I realize it says up to 12 hours depending on volume and content but I would still expect to get more than 4 hours of play time from it. I actually returned the first speaker because of it thinking it was defective of something. I bought another one hoping that the first one was defective. IT WASN'T. I think it would be better advertisement to say the battery last for 4 hours because that is the max amount of time I have been able to use the speaker.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Speaker!! This speaker for its size puts out amazing sound!! I have it with me when I am on the bike, working in the yard, or just around the campsite. I love the bass this speaker produces and the clarity of calls. I can stand 10 feet away and the person on the line can't even tell! I have left in outside for a few days sitting on end and when I went to retrieve it, shook the water out of the sub, and it played without issue! The speaker has amazingly loud sound so it can be put on one side of the yard, while working anywhere else and you be able hear it just fine.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great speaker I purchased the Flip 4 less than a month ago. I purchased it mainly for a replacement speaker for when I' cycling because I don't like to wear headphones. I also use it when I'm working out in the garage, on runs and hikes. The clarity on it is awesome. For it to be a small speaker the bass on it is pretty good. The speaker will last for some time if you don't have it too loud. While cycling I had it to close to it's max because I was on loud and busy streets. The battery lasted for about 3 hours. I was pretty disappointed, but considering how loud and clear it was through the traffic, bike lanes along the river and in wide open areas I'm glad I purchased it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Better Than Previously Owned Speakers This is better than other speakers I have owned, is louder, works better, and is better looking :) I love the fact that it goes under water, that really comes in clutch since I'm always at a lake or pool in the summer. It connects quickly using Bluetooth and the Connect+ features. It's small and light which makes it easier for travel. It's very loud so I can hear it through my whole house but it doesn't make the music sound gritty, still very clear at loud volumes. And honestly I just love the colors it comes in. Would definitely recommend to a friend! (Actually I already have)

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Absolutely unbelievable I never write reviews but I bought a pair of JBL flip 4 speakers and I consider myself a full audiofie with a full separate system with floor standing speakers in my living room. I bought these speakers because I travel a lot with work and I wanted the full stereo experience where ever I was. With these speakers I found it, I am really impressed. They have amazing sound in stereo mode. The only thing I would say is the app could be better as it is a little slow to connect and dosen't always stay in stereo mode which is a little annoying. Other than that, awesome and I would fully recommend to any music lover. BUY 2 FOR THE BEST EXPERIENCE.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Sound, bass, form factor!  I have bought a speaker of another manufacturer, a good one, but after listening to my friends FLIP 4, I exchanged it without hesitation on FLIP 4! Deep, soft sound with excellent hard bass))) QUESTION TO THE MANUFACTURER Please explain the correct work of the FLIP 4 speaker when tested with pouring water on the membranes of passive speakers (in vertical position). In some reviews water stands still on the top of the membranes of passive speakers, but in some it flows inside of the speaker and flows out from the lower membrane. If the water flows inside of the speaker and flows out from the lower membrane - this means that the column is defective and the membranes are not sealed, so I can contact the seller to exchange the speaker ???

Is there a way to shut off or turn down the volume of the start up noise? I like to use this speaker in a office environment but I don't like how loud the start up noise is? Is there a fix for this?

Asked by: MQ32q
Yes, on the current Flip 4 you must download the JBL App and update Firmware that takes up to 15 minutes or so to process and afterwards you can simply turn feature off as an option on the app via iPhone or Android. I too love the product but when your living with roommates, work in office environments or want to simply stay incognito, having the option to say, you know, I can see that it’s on by the light ambient behind the device is always good enough. Unless of course, one may be visually blind.

Hi, we have issues connecting two smart phones to our flip 4. This was the reason I bought this model, so both my husband and I could play our music. However, if one of us is connected the other is unable to without the first person disconnecting. 

Asked by: Anonymous
Hi there, thanks for reaching out. We're here to help! If both phones are already paired and connected once to your JBL Flip 4, all you have to do is to make sure that both phones BT are on and you've selected JBL Flip 4 in the Menu. If you're playing a music on one phone, it will stop once you hit play on the other phone which Bluetooth is also enabled. If the issue persists, please try a factory reset: 1.Turn on your JBL Flip 4. 2. Press and hold the "Volume +" and "Play" buttons at the same time for more than 3 seconds. 3. Unit will power Off by itself. Now the unit is reset to factory default. Remove the old profile of the Flip 4 from both phone's Bluetooth Menu before you try to pair and connect again. If you need more help, you may reach out to your local support here: https://www.jbl.co.nz/support-knowledgebase.html

I'm using Flip 4 to playing guitar, using the 3.5mm line in. If I don't play a note for 5 seconds, it goes into a power save mode, at which point the next note I play is not audible while it "wakes up." Possible to extend this time/disable?

Asked by: hip_modernism
Yes to remedy this simply plug the USB power into the speaker. When power is plugged in it will not go into power saving mode with audio delays.

Can I link multiple Flip 4s together and use them for a conference call. Would they create feedback due to the multiple mics or are they designed for scenarios like that?

Asked by: MAD_USMC
Hi there, you definitely can connect multiple JBL Flip 4 speakers together with the help of the JBL Connect+ feature but this wasn't designed for conference calling. This feature was developed so you can enjoy music at an amplified level.

How do I connect a flip 2 to my desktop?

Asked by: reelgem77
Hi there, thanks for asking. You can connect your JBL Flip 2 to a desktop using an auxiliary cable. Alternatively, you may also use a Bluetooth External Adapter on your desktop so it'll have Bluetooth capability to pair it wirelessly with your speaker.

Can I charge my JBL Flip 4 by plugging the charging cable directly into the USB ports on my WYZE surge protector ?

Asked by: JaneMarie
Hi Jane, thanks for asking. You can connect the charging cable to it as long as it has at least 1 Ampere of current with 5 Volts strictly. You can't use it with a power supply/adapter with more than 5 volts as it will damage the unit.
